There is really no other way to describe this place other than run down. The main office area building was borderline condemned. It is literally falling apart. They say there is wifi at the office but it hardly worked. (One bar if you’re lucky). The biggest issue for me was the bathroom. They were absolutely disgusting. The building needs serious updates. It was not cleaned enough especially during a pandemic. The showers had dirt and dead bugs everywhere. The shower curtains were moldy. I felt dirty as soon as I stepped out of the shower. On one of the bathrooms that had a sliding door there is no lock. It is not accessible at all for those in wheelchairs. I gave it 2 stars for the pool because the kids had fun in it. The lovely lady that did the bingo for the kids was very sweet and made it fun for everyone.…

Stayed Natal Day - long weekend July 30 , Aug 1st. Huge campground ( an old golf course ). The office and rec hall should have been first signs of neglect ; old farm buildings that are sagging and needs to be freshened up. We stayed on the far side of campground- across river. Now being a long weekend and an old golf course , they should've cut the grass shorter. It was quite long. The picnic tables are falling apart, paint flaking off and many unsafe to use. Our firepit was an old rim on grass, no gravel or blocks to air flow. The sites in our area are non-descript, not knowing where to park for your site, no pads to outline your area. The driveways are potholed throughout entire campground. These are little , inexpensive fixes that would make a huge difference . There is a pool- didn't use it - kids were enjoying it though. There are outhouses and porta-johnnies in a few different areas. The main washrooms and showers should be torn down and rebuilt. Men's room was terrible. The showers are paid - no problem - but - whomever the carpenter was who built them should be taken out to pasture. Its not that they weren't clean, it's they need reconstruction to square things up and some paint to freshen it up. They had long weekend activities - poker run, adult bingo, bike rentals ( $2 /hr. or $10/day ), pool. I may seem to be complaining about little things, but those little things are easily fixable to give guests a better, more comfortable stay.…

Had an awesome time camping with friends and family this season. It was our first time being seasonal campers, and it won't be our last. Staff is friendly and helpful. Very dog friendly. Great location.

I just purchased an RV and brought it over for trial run at this campground for 1 week. This is a well-maintained campground. They have put thought into many aspects of it. Nice large pool, clean bathrooms, large showers, laundry facilities. Lots of area to do daily walks, ejoy the turtles on the river. Staff are awesome and extremely helpful. I have very much enjoyed my stay here and contemplating booking for a full season next year. Come and check it out you will be pleasantly surprised. Thanks Randy, Stoney, Kayden for making my visit enjoyable.

My grandchildren and step children grew up at this campground. The owners Brenda and Randy do an amazing job making this a great summer home. The neighbors we had there are best friends today outside the campground. Going here in the summer time was like coming to your other family. I don't think there was a person or child that came there that Brenda didn't remember their name. One of the highlights to this campground is the wagon ride Randy takes everyone on and you get to see the whole campground. Judy and her granddaughter who work there also know everyone and do stuff with the kids. I would recommend this campground to anyone that wants a nice weekend away that is still close enough to the city that you don't have a long drive to get there. It's quiet and not over crowded.
